Sorted!

This morning at 11:15am the car sales guy hadn't called me back so I called the car dealership and asked to speak to my sales rep, he was busy, so I asked to speak to a manager or someone else as I keep leaving messages for the sales rep and he doesn't seem to call me back - thankfully the woman who answered the phone remembered me from yesterday and so got me put through to someone.
After speaking with a manager we got it all sorted. I explained I was annoyed that I was told I would be called back and I wasn't and that I didn't mind if it was to tell me the date was late next week, this week, whenever or you didn't know - just keep me informed. If someone had done that at my work then it wouldn't be acceptable. We got it sorted and he understood my position and he agreed that if you say you will call someone back then do so, anyway it was all good and he would get the sales person to call me back and apologise and give me more of an update
It turns out that my car was being delivered to their preparation site or what have you today, so then they will be able to finish the car off.

The sales rep called me back about an hour later to apologise for not calling me back and he said that the car is still on schedule for Tuesday and the latest the end of the week - OK! Sure, not so happy with saying the end of the week, but now I have at least been informed of what is happening and my expectations are set.

My main gripe was that I don't know the process involved in buying and delivering a new car and I just wanted to know if it was possible to bring the delivery date forward or not because the bank is waiting to give me the cheque.

This afternoon at about 3pm or so the sales rep called me again to say that they will have the car delivered to their showroom on Tuesday and what time would I like to book in to collect it!! YaY!!! He is also going to call me on Monday with the rego plate details.

I get my new car on Tuesday!!

It has been weird dealing with the car dealer cos I am so excited I just want it now! now! now! but I am trying not to harass them too much, but they really should just return calls when they say they will.

In other good news, I saw my payslip today for the pay that goes in tonight - my new wage is now officially being paid to me :D Back pay is such a nice wonderful thing, so is not paying HECS :D
